One way of representing attaining the positive externality by the government is through the promotion of education.

Option D is the correct answer.

<h3>What is an externality?</h3>

When the cost or advantage is received by a third party that is not related to the economic activity, then it is considered an externality.  

A positive externality is the arousal of a positive effect on either production or consumption. The act of penalizing a company for pollution, imposing taxes on citizens earning more than $250,000 and the reduction in rates of interest would all be classified as negative externalities.

Therefore, the encouragement of education by the government is regarded as a positive externality.

Equipment costing $40,000 with a salvage value of $8,000 and an estimated life of 8 years has been depreciated using the straigh
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The equipment originally cost 40,000 and has a salvage value of 8,000, which means that the amount that can be depreciated is 32,000. It has a life of 8 years and follows a straight line method so the yearly depreciation would be 32,000/8= 4,000.

The depreciation for the first 2 years is 4000*2= 8,000

So the book value of the asset is 40,000-8000= 32,000

Since according to the new estimate the total life is 5 years, and 2 years have already passed the remaining life of the asset is 3 years. Also since there is no change in salvage value the amount that can be depreciated is 32,000-8,000= 24,000

To find out the deprecation in year 3 we will divide 24,000 by the reaming life which is 3.

24,000/3= 8,000

The depreciation expense in year 3 would have been $8,000
